Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0558174A1] A novel asphaltic composition is provided herein. The composition includes comminuted aged asphaltic pavement material and an effective amount, e.g., from about 2% to about 15% by weight, of a blend of a soft asphalt cement, and/or a conventional asphalt cement, and/or a cutback asphalt, in combination with a nitrogen-containing, adhesion-improving, anti-stripping agent. Such agent is a sewage sludge-derived oil, or a fraction thereof, such sewage sludge-derived oil comprising a mixture of saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, monoaromatic hydrocarbons, diaromatic hydrocarbons, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, polar compounds and basic, pyridene-soluble compounds, having the following elemental chemical composition: nitrogen, about 3.4% to about 5% by weight; oxygen, about 5.8% to about 6.9% by weight; sulfur, about 0.3% to about 0.8% by weight; hydrogen, about 9.7% to about 10.4%, and carbon, about 76.9% to about 79.8%.
